Reading a bedtime story is not just an easy way to relax kids into slumber as the day winds into the night; it offers a chance for the reader to connect with a child, and for the child to connect to the world. Children experience morals, far away environments, historical eras, and diverse cultures through the media they consume, and this one-on-one story-telling experience carries the weight of being so personal. Bedtime stories play with both the inherent wisdom and the innocent wonder of children listening to them, so they have a boundless range of topics and styles to explore. A collection of books is a great way to find stories that captivate and challenge kids while sharing an entertaining evening with them.
